Description:
This atmospheric French Impressionist oil painting captures the tranquil yet dramatic beauty of a coastal village. Vibrantly painted fishing boats with striking red sails rest at low tide, their reflections shimmering in the shallow waters. The contrast between the vivid colors of the boats and the subdued tones of the cloudy sky creates a compelling tension, drawing the viewer into the scene. In the distance, a row of whitewashed cottages lines the sandy shore, adding depth and balance to the composition. The artist’s bold, textured brushstrokes bring life to the rugged coastline and evoke the quiet resilience of maritime life. A timeless depiction of a serene moment in a bustling fishing village, perfect for admirers of seascapes and Impressionist art.

Fanch Lel
Fanch Lel’s paintings, primarily executed in oil and gouache, evoke the serenity and charm of the French countryside, with a particular emphasis on the region's coastal and rural beauty. His works often highlight iconic landmarks such as Mont Saint-Michel and capture the essence of Breton culture with his portrayals of the region’s people and customs. Lel's self-taught, plein air approach allows for dynamic compositions that reflect the atmospheric light and textures of the region, giving his pieces a timeless appeal. His choice of soft, muted colors and rich textures brings a sense of nostalgia and quietude to each painting, making them a perfect addition to collections that appreciate mid-century French art. A member of the Société des Artistes Indépendants and a Knight of the Palmes Académiques, Fanch Lel's works have been featured in numerous exhibitions across France, including in Paris, Avranches, Dinard, and Pont-Aven, to name a few. His art has been highly sought after by collectors for decades.
